Everyone wants perfect skin, without any blemishes, cellulite or wrinkles. Unfortunately, most of us don’t have that perfect skin, and you can at least partly blame your genetics. This DNA Skin Health test identifies genetic variants that influence your skin’s health and appearance. Your results will help you to customize your skin care routine based on your genetics.

The appearance of your skin is an excellent indicator of your overall health. Nutritional deficiencies can cause pale, sallow skin, specific irritants or foods can cause an inflammatory response, and too much sun exposure leads to increased wrinkles and age spots. Other changes, like cellulite and stretch marks, are not physically harmful, but can have a psychological impact on some people. This test identifies genetic variants that influence your skin health and appearance, and although you cannot change your genes, there are various other approaches to help your skin appearance. The skin health industry is a rapidly growing industry and targeted treatments are continuously being developed. A knowledge of your unique genetic variation allows you to choose the currently available and future treatments best suited for your skin.
